I [C#]
[F#] stopped [E] this song [C#]
without any words
It got [F#m] so [E] [A#] high, I scratched it [C#] out loud
[B] I love [A#] myself, [G#]
better [C#] than you
I [F#] know [E] it's wrong, what [C#] should I do?
The [F#] finest day that [D#] I've ever [C#] [F#] had
Was when I [E] [F#] learned [D#m] from [C#] a man
[B] I love [A#] myself, [G#]
[C#] better than you
[F#] I know [E] it's [A#] wrong, what should I [C#] do?
[E]
[C#] I'm on a plane, [A] I can't [C#] complain
[E] I'm [C#] on a plane
[A]
[C#] My [F#] brother [E] died [C#] every night
[F#] He seemed to [E] say, call [C#] me all mad
[B] I love [A#] myself, [G#] better [C#] than you
[F#] I know it's [E] wrong, what [C#] should I do?
[F#] The plaques you [E] [C#m] got, I'm in [C#] [F#] again
I got to [E] put [B] on this [C#] coat
[B] I love [A#] myself, [G#]
[C#] better than you
I know [F#] it's [E] [A#] wrong, what should I [C#] do?
[E]
[C#] I'm on a plane, [A] I [C#] can't complain
[F#] [E] I'm [C#] on a plane
[A]
[F#] [E] Somewhere [D#] I have heard [G#] this [F#] before
[E] In [D#] a dream my [G#] memory's [F#] sore
[E] [D#] Hell's defense, a new [G#] dirt and [F#] stain
[E] What the [D#] hell am I trying [F#] [G#] to [F#] say?
[C#] [F#] It's not [E] [A#] time to make it [C#] unclear
The right [F#] off [E] [A#] lines don't [C#] make sense
[B] I love [A#] myself, [G#] better [C#] than you
I [F#] know it's [Bm] wrong, [F#]
what [C#] should I do?
[F#] One more special [C#] message to go
[F#] And then [E] I'm done, [D#m]
and I [C#] can go [B] home
Love [A#] myself, [G#]
better [C#] than you
I [F#] know [E] it's wrong, [A#]
what [C#] should I [F#] do?
[E]
I'm [C#] on a plane, [A]
I can't [C#] complain
[F#m] [C#m] I'm [E]
on [C#] a plane
[F#m] [A] I can't [C#] complain
[E] I'm on [C#] a plane
